Anti-ultraviolet additive comprising a uva filter, a uvb filter and an oil that is a solvent for said filters, and use thereof in coloured and/or perfumed compositions

ABSTRACT

The invention relates to an additive comprising at least 95 wt. % of a mixture consisting of at least one organic filter filtering UV A , at least one organic filter filtering UV B , and from 1 to 50 wt. % of at least one non-volatile oil that is a solvent for said filters. This composition is particularly useful as an agent for protecting the organoleptic properties of a transparent cosmetic composition, against UV radiation.

The invention relates to a mixture of two organic UV filters dissolved in a non-volatile oil, as well as the use thereof as an anti-ultraviolet additive for protecting coloured and/or perfumed compositions from denaturation by UV radiation.

PRIOR ART

Consumers' attraction for cosmetic products packaged in transparent materials requires no further demonstration. These products are generally transparent themselves and in particular are exposed to light, to ultraviolet radiation (also called “UV radiation” or “UV” in the present application) and to temperature variations.

Now, daylight and UV cause decomposition of the molecules such as perfumes and dyes that these products contain. In particular we may observe a change of the perfume, decoloration, yellowing, pink coloration, flocculation and precipitates of substances, or clouding that may adversely affect the consumer's perception of the product and the efficiency of pumps, when it is packaged in a spray.

For protecting cosmetic compositions packaged in transparent bottles from such degradation throughout their useful life, generally filters that are active against UV (also called “UV filters” in the present application) and an antioxidant system are incorporated in them, in order to guarantee their stability.

It has always been stated in the prior art that the use of two UV filters will not protect a perfume from degradation by UV. Thus, ternary or quaternary mixtures of UV filters have been proposed in order to guarantee stabilization of perfumes.

For example, it was shown in application FR 2 916 346 that the colour and the odour of a toilet water comprising 1 wt. % of a mixture of n-hexyl 2-(4-diethylamino-2-hydroxybenzoyl)benzoate and ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate 35/65 are degraded on exposure to UV and heat, so that it is necessary to add a third UV filter of the butylmethoxy-dibenzoylmethane type to obtain effective protection of the product against UV.

Moreover, the colour and the odour of a toilet water comprising 1 wt. % of ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate and 0.3 wt. % of butylmethoxydibenzoylmethane are degraded on exposure to UV and heat. This is why it was proposed in application WO 2006/005846 to add a third filter, ethylhexyl salicylate, to ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate and to butylmethoxydibenzoylmethane to protect cosmetic compositions from decoloration when they are exposed to UV.

Applications FR 2 916 347 and FR 2 923 385 also describe mixtures of filters comprising a cinnamate and a dibenzoylmethane to guarantee stability of the colour and odour of a toilet water. These quaternary mixtures comprise a cinnamate, a dibenzoylmethane and a salicylate derivative, in combination with either a derivative of hydroxyaminobenzophenone, or a derivative of benzotriazole.

However, ethylhexyl salicylate has the drawback of being odorous: it releases a greasy, pyrogenous, plastic, rubbery note, so that its use for stabilization of perfuming solutions is not satisfactory; depending on the percentage at which it is introduced for this application, it may lead to degradation of the authenticity of the perfume.

Finally, it has been proposed to add, to a mixture of UV filters comprising a cinnamate and a dibenzoylmethane, an organic compound comprising a nitroxyl or hydroxylamine group such as tris-tetra-methylhydroxypiperidinol (marketed under the reference Tinogard Q) for protecting fabrics, cosmetic compositions and household maintenance products from the effects of light, heat and oxidation (patent application WO 2005/042828).

Unfortunately the stabilizing additives recommended in the patent applications of the prior art contain large amounts of UV filters, which are raw materials that are expensive and tend to alter the colour or the scent of the perfuming solution.

Increasing the quantity of filters in the perfumes has also been tried, in order to protect the products against UV radiation; however, this route was not successful, because at higher concentrations the film of perfume vaporized on the skin leaves a greasy sensation and because regulatory requirements impose maximum limits to the level of use of each UV filter.

AIM OF THE INVENTION

Therefore there is still a need for new UV-protective additives for cosmetic products containing perfumes and/or dyes that are transparent or translucent, said additives not displaying the drawbacks of the stabilizers of the prior art. Stabilizers that are less expensive and do not alter the organoleptic properties such as the odour and colour of a cosmetic product, while providing sufficient stabilization of the product exposed to daylight or to temperature differences, are therefore sought.

The applicant discovered, surprisingly, that this aim could be achieved by combining two UV filters and a non-volatile, preferably polar, oil.

In contrast to the teaching of the prior art, which suggests using at least three UV filters to obtain sufficient stabilization of perfuming solutions with respect to the adverse influence of UV, the inventors found that it is possible, against all expectations, to use only two UV filters, in a coloured and/or perfumed composition, while guaranteeing sufficient stability of the colour and/or of the perfume. It is also possible to incorporate smaller amounts of UV filters than those recommended in the prior art while guaranteeing sufficient stability. The inventors found, surprisingly, that certain non-volatile oils make it possible to increase the effectiveness of UV filters in a coloured or perfumed composition. These oils in fact improve the solubility of the UV filters, so that it is possible to incorporate them in a smaller amount while guaranteeing sufficient stabilization of the product. The inventors discovered that it is even possible to use only two UV filters for effectively stabilizing a transparent cosmetic product that is exposed to UV.

The filter active in the UV_(B) is different from the filter active in the UV_(A) and can be selected independently of said filter, from the filters that are active both in the UV_(A) and in the UV_(B) described above.

The UV_(A) and UV_(B) filters are combined in the additive so as to cover effectively the whole spectrum of UV radiation defined above. The content of each of the two filters is set as a function of their ability to stop UV radiation.

According to one embodiment, the additive contains at least one UV_(A) filter selected from dibenzoylmethane derivatives, and at least one UV_(B) filter selected from cinnamate derivatives.

The UV filter selected from cinnamate derivatives advantageously represents from 20 to 90 wt. %, preferably from 30 to 75 wt. %, of the weight of the additive.

The UV filter selected from cinnamate derivatives advantageously represents from 0.3 to 0.4 wt. % of the weight of the coloured and/or perfumed composition.

The additive of the invention can advantageously also contain a salicylate filter.

The additive of the invention contains a non-volatile oil that dissolves the organic UV filters, and advantageously increases their degree of absorption of UV radiation.

“Oil” means, in the sense of the invention, a fat that is insoluble in water, and is liquid at 25° C. and 0.1 MPa. “Non-volatile oil” means any oil having a vapour pressure, at 25° C. and 0.1 MPa, that is non-zero and is less than 2.6 Pa, preferably less than 0.13 Pa. In the sense of the present invention, a non-volatile oil is not a perfume and is not an organic UV filter. According to a preferred embodiment, the non-volatile oil is different from any organic UV filter that has been previously described.

The non-volatile oil is advantageously miscible in the continuous phase of a composition or in a solvent, in which the additive of the invention is dispersed or dissolved. The miscibility of the non-volatile oil in a solvent or a phase can be evaluated according to the following protocol. The selected solvent or phase (80 wt. %) is weighed in a beaker, then the non-volatile oil selected (20 wt. %) is added to the beaker. It is stirred for 5 minutes and then the whole is packaged in a 120-ml pill box. It is left to stand for 24 hours at 25° C. After standing for 24 hours, if the mixture is visually clear and homogeneous, it is considered that the non-volatile oil is miscible in the solvent or in the continuous phase.

According to one embodiment, the oil is a hydrocarbon oil comprising at most one aliphatic ring. The oil is preferably an aliphatic oil, i.e. it is not aromatic in the sense that it does not contain a cyclic system obeying Hückel's aromaticity rule.

“Aliphatic” means a non-aromatic compound. “Aliphatic ester, ether, alcohol or acid” means a compound consisting of carbon atoms, of hydrogen atoms and of a COO, COC, OH or COOH group, respectively. “Hydroxylated aliphatic ester” means a hydrocarbon compound comprising a COO group and at least one OH group, preferably a single OH group.

According to another embodiment, the oil is a silicone oil comprising at least one aromatic carbon-containing group.

“Aliphatic ester” means a compound consisting of carbon atoms, of hydrogen atoms and of at least one COO group. “Monoester” means a compound comprising one COO group, and “diester” means a compound comprising two COO groups.

“Hydroxylated ester” means a compound comprising at least one COO group and at least one OH group.

In another embodiment, an ester selected from aliphatic monoesters and diesters is preferred. The hydroxylated esters are preferably non-aromatic.

The non-volatile oil is preferably selected from aliphatic mono- and diesters, non-hydroxylated aromatic esters, aliphatic carbonates and phenylated silicones.

According to a preferred embodiment, the composition is a perfuming solution containing a volatile alcohol and water in an amount in the range from 0.01 to 20 wt. %, preferably from 0.1 to 15 wt. %, and more preferably from 0.2 to 12 wt. % relative to the total weight of the solution.

In this embodiment, the non-volatile oil is preferably soluble at 25° C. in at least one aliphatic monohydric alcohol comprising 2 to 5 carbon atoms.

The solubility of the non-volatile oil in alcohol can be assessed by the protocol for measurement of miscibility as described above.

The composition preferably contains from 0.01 to 10 wt. %, more preferably from 0.1 to 5 wt. %, and more preferably from 0.3 to 2 wt. % of the additive described above containing UV filters dissolved in a non-volatile oil.

The composition can contain a perfume, defined as an odorous substance or a mixture of odorous substances that can evaporate at 25° C.

The additive according to the invention can protect the perfume from degradation by UV, when the composition contains it.

Each perfume has what is called a top note, which is the odour that diffuses first on applying the perfume or on opening its container, a middle note which corresponds to the complete perfume (emission for some hours after the top note) and a basic note, which is the most persistent odour (emission for several hours after the middle note). The persistence of the basic note corresponds to the odour persistence of the perfume. The perfume can for example be selected from compounds whose INCI name appearing in the list of ingredients of the composition offered for sale is “Perfume”. A perfume is a compound that is at least partially volatile at room temperature, the odour of which is detected.

“Perfume” also means any organic compound that is able to perfume the skin, hair, scalp, lips or nails.

The amount of perfume will more preferably be from 3 to 50 wt. %, better still from 5 to 30 wt. %, even better from 10 to 20 wt. % relative to the total weight of the composition.

Perfumes and aromas of natural or synthetic origin and mixtures thereof can be used. As perfumes and aromas of natural origin, we may mention for example extracts from flowers (lily, lavender, rose, jasmine, ylang-ylang), from stems and leaves (patchouli, geranium, petitgrain), from fruits (coriander, anise, cumin, juniper), from the rind of fruits (bergamot, lemon, orange), from roots (angelica, celery, cardamom, iris, sweet rush), from wood (pine wood, sandalwood, guaiacum, pink cedar), from herbs and grasses (tarragon, lemon grass, sage, thyme), from needles and branches (spruce, fir, pine, dwarf pine), from resins and balsams (galbanum, elemi, benzoin, myrrh, olibanum, opopanax).

Example 1 Perfuming Solutions

A—Preparation of Perfuming Solution

Perfuming solutions, also called fragrances, were prepared with the following composition:

TABLE 1 Fragrance Fragrance Fragrance No. 1 No. 2 No. 3 Alcohol at 96.2 vol. % Q.s. 100 Q.s. 100 Q.s. 100 Concentrate 11.00 of 17.85 of 30.00 of concentrate concentrate concentrate No. 1 No. 2 No. 3 Purified water 10.38 2.54 0.56 dyes  0.11 0.10 0.43 BHT 5 × 10⁻³ 5 × 10⁻³ 1 × 10⁻²

Concentrate No. 1 was composed predominantly of hedione, concentrate No. 2 was composed predominantly of rose essence, and concentrate No. 3 was composed predominantly of jasmine absolute. A mixture of filters and of non-volatile oil according to the invention, having one of the following four compositions, was incorporated in each of these fragrances:

TABLE 2 Mixture 1 Mixture 2 Mixture 3 Mixture 4 70% OCTYL METHOXYCINNAMATE 15% BMDBM* DIISOSTEARYL 15% MALATE PHENYL 15% TRIMETHICONE BUTYLENE GLYCOL 15% DICAPRYLATE/ DICAPRATE ISONONYL 15% ISONONANOATE *BMDBM: 4-(tert-butyl)-4′-methoxy dibenzoylmethane

The ethanol and the water were mixed cold in a beaker with Ystral stirring for 5 min. Then the dyes were added, in the form of a solution in ethanol or in water as appropriate, to the aqueous-alcoholic mixture, and it was stirred for 5 minutes.

The antioxidant BHT, BMDBM, octyl methoxycinnamate and the non-volatile oil were mixed in a dish at 70° C. with magnetic stirring, varying the amount of the mixture in the fragrance between 0.1 and 5 wt. %.

Then the mixture was left to cool and the perfume was added, with magnetic stirring. The contents of the dish were then mixed with the coloured aqueous-alcoholic solution with stirring for 10 min, packaged in a perfume atomizer for testing sprayability, in 30-ml pill boxes filled with 25 ml for stove stabilities, then in 60-ml glass bottles for the SUN TEST and olfactory testing.

B—Stability and Sensory Assessment of the Perfuming Solutions

We then evaluated the thermal stability, cold stability and stability to UV radiation of each of the three fragrances containing one of the four additives described above, according to the following protocols.

Stability of Homogeneity of the Solution in a Stove at 4° C. and 45° C.

The 30-ml pill boxes, filled to 25 ml with a fragrance, are put in a stove at 45° C. and in a refrigerator at 4° C. for 3 months. The solution is stable (compliant result) if there is no phase separation or clouding or significant deposit.

Stability of the Colour and of the Odour to UV

The L*a*b* colour coordinates of the mixture, placed in a 60-ml glass bottle filled to 55 ml with a fragrance, were measured before irradiation by means of a Minolta 3600D CM, POS 0118 spectro-colorimeter.

The bottles, each containing one fragrance, are placed upright, which permits complete exposure of the bottle to UV, for 12 hours in the following conditions.

Each sample is irradiated in a Suntest™ apparatus, model CPS. The UV source used is a xenon lamp emitting between 300 and 800 nm at a power of 765 W/m². The xenon lamp is associated with a “short cut-off” quartz filter combined with “UV Special Glass”. The sample is maintained at a temperature of 25° C. (using cooling and/or air conditioning plates).

After 12 hours of irradiation, the L*a*b* coordinates of the fragrance containing the additive were measured again. The colour of the solution is considered stable (compliant result) if the difference between the two measurements in standard conditions of measurement (D₆₅ illuminant and Observer at 10°), expressed by delta E, is less than 5, preferably less than 1.

The odour of the solution before and after exposure to UV radiation in the conditions described above was also evaluated by olfactory experts.

The test result is deemed compliant if the olfactory expert does not detect any significant difference in intensity of odour after exposure to UV radiation.

Greasy Sensation Left on the Skin (Sensory Assessment)

The fragrance was applied on the neck by spraying with an atomizer, and the aim was to detect any residual greasy sensation left on the skin, once the alcohol and water had evaporated.

Assessment is based on residual greasy sensation on the skin, or on visual observations (residual greasy film or clothing stained).

For example, a solution containing fragrance No. 2 and 10 wt. % of mixture 2, 3 or 4 is judged too greasy by the expert.

The test result is deemed compliant if the expert does not detect an uncomfortable sensation and there is no observation of greasiness.

The results of these various assessments are reported in Tables 3 to 8 below. The statements in parentheses qualify the result obtained without altering its compliance. The statements in italics characterize observations that make the result non-compliant.
